These two custom lampshades are packed up and on their way to Seattle! (only one pictured here)

My client wanted a coordinated pair, so I hand-painted each shade to match with the same soft ombré transition from deep navy blue to turquoise, aqua, and warm white. While every hand-painted piece is unique, the goal was to create a pair that felt perfectly at home together.

Projects like this are one of my favorite parts of what I do—helping customers create something personal and truly one-of-a-kind for their homes.

What room would you place these in—living room, bedroom, or beach house sunroom?

This is one of those pieces that doesn’t come around twice 💙🌿

The layered greens and blues create a soft, landscape-like effect—and because it’s hand-painted with alcohol ink, no two will ever look the same.

If it caught your eye, trust that instinct… this one won’t be restocked in the same design.

Imagine these on a shelf with a little trailing plant, a stack of books, and some natural light coming in.

That’s exactly the vibe I had in mind when I painted these.

A calm, easy, everyday kind of beauty.

Small planter. Bold color. 🌿

Hand-painted alcohol ink on ceramic with a trailing succulent that refuses to behave.

Exactly the kind of little pop of color a windowsill was made for.
